the fbi says it interviews him just once. and it's interesting that ann curry talked to the mother late weekend. friday, i believe. who basically corroborates what the fbi says. she says the fbi interviewed him about a year and a half ago. so that would have been before his trip to moscow. no one in the family that we know of has said that the fbi interviewed him when he got back in july of last year from his trip to russia. >> okay. interesting. in that interview, the mother used the word "controlled," that her son was being controlled by the fbi. i think it's a fairly okay assumption to say she may have mistaken that. english isn't her first language. maybe she meant observed. the fbi isn't in the business of controlling individuals. >> i think you're right about that. >> okay, thank you very much, pete. >>> some new information. this is reaction from the republic of dagestan. it may provide some clues on how tamerlan tsarnaev spent his time during a six-month trip to the region in 2012. adrian long is joining me. what have

negotiators or atf or fbi. probably a team. >> they're working with him and talking with him and that's good. now the commanders, they've got to have on the tip of their mind, that madrid, spain incident. and they got to remember that that's where the terrorists, when the police came after they did their terrorist bombing campaign, when the police went in, they blew up and committed suicide. so if i was in charge, that case, madrid, would always be on the front of my mind. now, the caveat to that is, is he alone? because if he's alone, it's a barricaded suspect and we need to slow it down and talk and keep madrid on the forefront. if it's somebody in there with him, the whole dynamic changes. but the way we're looking now, this is very positive development. if he's isolated and he's alone. >> james cavanaugh, as has been said, it is person to person and the linkages between each person as you add, as we add the third person, the question is the third accomplice, what are the connections. roger cressey, we've be

so the fbi does what it says it's able to do under the law. they looked at whether he was in any of the federal databases of suspected terrorists or whether there was any indication that he was communicating either by phone or my looking at internet sites with any suspected terrorist organizations or individuals. they looked at his travel, travel history, all of that came up negative. so then they decided to interview him. they questioned him, questioned members of his family and after doing all that they said we've got nothing here. they said they went back to the russians -- or they went back to the foreign government and said we can't find anything, give us more. tell us more of what you think, why you think this and they say they never got a response. >> the obama administration has okayed the suspension of the suspect's miranda rights. is that a temporary suspension? >> reporter: yes, by law it is. it's called the public safety exception to the miranda rule. normally you have to tell someone they have a right to remain silent and if you d

there's going to be a lot more digging by the fbi. but at least -- and plus, add to that that no al qaeda groups or no al qaeda-affiliated groups or any international terrorist groups have claimed credit for this bombing, which is a bit odd if they were. because generally the whole purpose is to claim the credit and after most of the major terrorist attacks by al qaeda, there was a claim of responsibility. so, look, none of this is dispositive at this point. but at least so far, and we're early, the indicators do seem to match up that this is looking like a case of self-radicalization. that these brothers were on the internet, got inspired by reading "inspire" and other al qaeda and jihadi videos. there's also this prophet -- not prophet, this preacher, feiz mohammed, who's an awlaki type guy. an inspirational jihadi preacher who tamerlan tsarnaev in his youtube account posts videos from. so he may have played a role in inspiring these. inspiring them or radicalizing them. but as i said, chris, we're a long way from finishing this inv

what is the fbi focusing on today and moving forward? >> reporter: federal prosecutors are focusing on drafting a criminal complaint we could see as early as this afternoon, detailing the criminal charges against him supported by an affidavit from an fbi agent that would lay out some details of the plot. not all of them but could provide crucial new information for us about what tsarnaev actually did and raise and shed some light on whether the fbi think there is are any accomplices or not. at the same time, have this high-value intelligence interrogation team that is planning to question him as early as they can without reading him his miranda rights, the standard rights you see on every crime show. mandated by the constitution are not going to be use td used in case.

the fbi listened to them. they thought it was substantial enough to listen to them and to hear what they had to say. but the fbi let them go. that was wrong, apparently, as we know now, in retrospect. so why couldn't the fbi continue to follow up on some of these serious accusations that were made about the patriotism and the reliability and the credibility of these terrorists that we now know are terrorists? >> ambassador ray flynn, former mayor of boston, ambassador, thank you very much for your time on this sunday. >> yes, sir. >>> it was no boston marathon, but even a 5k walk in new york city gets serious security in the wake of what happened last week. >>> and coming up, the latest on another big story this week, the blast that virtually levelled a town in texas. some signs of hope today in the west. we'll go there as well. you're watching msnbc. acceler-rental. at a hertz expressrent kiosk, you can rent a car without a reservation... and without a line. now that's a fast car. it's just another way you'll
